so now I was starting to feel a little guilty about all the whining I have been doing lately and not talking at all about the girls.  Did you know I can blow up a balloon and type at the same time?  Neither did I…..until just now!

anyway, aside from the fact that I have the attention span of a 3 year-old, Olivia is doing GREAT!  She is such a sweet little girl.  She is so very gentle with Eve and helpful.  I have been truly blessed.  She has "graduated" from speach therapy and no longer needs it…WHOOHOO!  She is very loving and an introvert.  She loves other kids but takes a while to warm up. 

Potty learning is going GREAT!  We waited until she was ready and she just wears a diaper to poop and at night.  We haven’t had but a handful of accidents.  We bought her a 12 inch bike for her birthday with a little horn and flag and she absolutely loves it.  For some reason, she never could pedal her tricycle but she does awesome on her bike "just like the big girls".

Eve is doing awesome.  She is such a laid back, silly little baby.  She actually entertains herself, which is absolutely amazing.  She is so funny.  She is crawling down the hall (a feat she mastered at the wonderful age of 6 months ARGH!) growling because Oliva walked away from her.  She is our little growler and screacher.  She can’t talk yet but boy does she communicate!  She makes the cutest little faces.  She does this face scrunch, nose wrinkle that is hilarious…..Anyway, she is cruising or whatever they call it when she walks along with the furniture or whatever happens to be standing still.  You have to watch out because if you are standing somewhere and feel some precarious little hands on the backs of your calves it is her, pulling herself up on you…….
